The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne

"aunt!"

Lu Jinglang rushed over and blocked Murong's way: "My mother must not die innocently. I beg my aunt to make a decision for my mother."

Murong used to think that Lu Jinglang was gentle and sensible, a smart man, at least more likable than Lu Jingning.

But today, Murong finally realized what it meant to be inferior to others in skills.

"People are dead, they should be buried in peace, don't think too much about it."

Murong felt even more unlucky. A birthday banquet was to be held at home in a few days, but someone died.

She really didn't know how to explain it to the guests.

Now that things have come to this, how can I still have the energy to make decisions for Shangguan Wan?

At this time, two maids came over and held Lu Jinglang down.

Lu Jinglang kicked and struggled in fear.

"Woo!"

The two maids were very strong and they easily lifted Lu Jinglang away as if he were a chicken.

Murong on the side twitched her lips. She knew these two people. They were Shangguan's personal nanny.

Looking at Lu Jinglang's back being dragged away, the maid couldn't help but ask: "Madam, won't you save Miss Lang?"

"Save?" Murong smiled sarcastically. Lu Jinglang had lost his reputation and innocence, and was also despised by Prince Shen's Mansion. What's the point of saving such a person?

Things are different now. If Lu Jinglang was still the second young lady of Prince Shen’s Mansion, she might have to reconsider.

But now, she was unwilling to let Lu Jinglang occupy the position of the eldest grandson's wife of Shangguan Mansion for nothing.

"Let her be." Murong rubbed his brows.

So much happened overnight that she was exhausted.

"Madam, madam, something bad has happened. The Crown Princess has taken the princess away and we can't stop them." The maid came to report.

Murong frowned and without caring about anything else, she rushed to the door to persuade them.

If Shangguan really leaves the front door, the Shangguan family’s reputation will be ruined.

When Murong arrived, a group of people had already boarded the carriage. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Why didn't you stop them?"

The housekeeper covered his face and said in fear: "Madam, you don't know, the guards beside the Crown Princess just used a knife, and I couldn't stop it at all."

Murong was so angry that she almost tore the handkerchief in her hand.

"Go and inform the master to come back!"

Murong hadn't slept all night and was exhausted, but she still held on and waited.

"Madam, Madam, someone is coming from Minister Fang's residence."

"Minister Fang?" Murong looked confused.

"Madam, someone from Lord Liu's family has also arrived."

"The Duke of Qi's Mansion has also sent someone."

Murong's eyelids twitched as she watched the servant lead a group of people in, each holding a familiar gold-stamped red invitation in their hands.

Murong forced a smile and asked, "What is this?"

"My wife is ill and I'm afraid she won't be able to attend the birthday party in a few days."

"My wife is also ill."

...

The servants all said similar things.

Murong felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her eyes.

Ears are buzzing.

The servant placed the invitation on the table and left with his back hunched.

Soon the table was covered with invitations, which were blindingly red.

Murong's heart was beating wildly.

"What's going on?" Shangguan Si strode over and frowned as he looked at the invitation on the table.

Murong stepped forward as if she had seen the backbone of the matter. "It's all because of Aning's mischief. The Crown Princess is too unkind. She beat Sister Wan to death in public and forced Sister Lang to become a nun. She left the Shangguan Mansion with her people in a swagger. I don't know what these guests heard, but they all sent back their invitations and made up some excuse of being sick."

Murong gritted her teeth and said, "The Crown Princess even asked Zheng Ge'er to drop out of school."

This is what made her most angry.

Shangguan Yunzheng is the most promising child of this generation of the Shangguan family. He will definitely support the Shangguan family in the future. The Shangguan family should do their best to support Zheng'er.

Murong was furious and scolded Shangguan for being stupid for daring to ruin Zheng Ge'er's future.

"The Crown Princess is so willful and reckless. Sooner or later she will cry and beg for our forgiveness!"

Shangguan Si disagreed, he knew his sister's character.

Gentle and quiet, not competitive, kind-hearted and easily influenced by others.

I will never get mad unless my bottom line is touched.

Shangguan Si's face was not filled with anger. He waved his hand to let everyone leave. He bent down and sat down, saying in a deep voice, "Aning is the child she gave birth to after risking her life, so she should take care of him. Now is not the time to have a falling out with the East Palace. You should think of a way to calm the Crown Princess down."

"Master?" Murong exclaimed.

Shangguan Si said, "The Emperor has given the Crown Prince the command of 300,000 troops in the Northwest Camp."

This sentence made Murong instantly speechless.

She was stunned and said, "The emperor is really partial. The prince has no children, but the emperor doesn't mind."

Shangguan Si said calmly, "The Emperor has learned that the Crown Princess is willing to give the Crown Prince a concubine. It is only a matter of time before they have children."

He had earnestly advised the Crown Princess countless times to leave the mother and keep the child just in case.

But the Crown Princess refused.

Several years passed in a flash, and Shangguan Si really couldn't bear it anymore. He couldn't bear to watch the Shangguan family collapse.

A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in, and Shangguan Si hooked up with Prince Shen.

But I didn’t expect that the Crown Princess would suddenly wake up.

"The Eastern Palace has been gaining momentum recently. I have seen the Crown Prince's feelings for the Crown Princess over the years. Once the Crown Prince has a son, no one can compete with him."

Half of the people in the court are the prince's men.

The Emperor of Southern Liang would be the first to not forgive anyone who had second thoughts.

Several of his sons were demoted or sent to remote areas, and only Prince Shen had a good relationship with the crown prince and was lucky enough to stay in the capital.

"What if something unexpected happens to the prince when he returns, and he never has the chance to have a son again in this life?"

Murong blurted out, with a cruel murderous look on his face.

Shangguan Si frowned and glanced at Murong, and said unhappily: "Don't say such things anymore!"

Murong came back to her senses after being scolded and nodded angrily: "My concubine is confused, please don't be angry, Master."

"Mother, you go and calm down first. The birthday banquet is still a few days away. There is still time. Princess, I will think of a solution."

Murong nodded reluctantly.

evening

Shangguan took Lu Jingning back to the East Palace.

She held back her tears and sobbed as she hugged her daughter: "Aning, you have been wronged."

Lu Jingning shook her head: "Mother, my daughter is fine."

After calming down Shangguan, Lu Jingning decided to come clean and eliminate the spies hidden in the East Palace.

Shangguan sniffed and said in a deep voice, "You decide."

"it is good."

Lu Jingning handed Yun Zai a list, and found reasons to drive away all the people on the list.

Huamei fell to her knees and said, "Princess, please give me another chance. I will never dare to do it again."

Shangguan looked at Huamei in shock. She never expected that Huamei would betray her.

Huamei raised her hand and slapped her cheek hard, shouting that it was wrong.

Lu Jingning glanced at Yun Zai, and Yun Zai understood and dragged the man out.

"This girl knows too much, she cannot be kept," said Shangguan.

"Don't worry, mother. Your daughter knows her limits."

The mother and daughter were chatting when the young eunuch came back with the good news.

"Congratulations, Princess. The Emperor has handed over the Northwest Camp to Your Highness today."

Lu Jingning's face suddenly turned pale when he heard this: "Why so sudden?"

This scene in the previous life happened three years later.

The prince took over the northwest, and the Northern Qi invaded. The northwest border map was stolen, and the northwest was defeated step by step, with countless casualties.

From then on, the prince was cursed by the people of Southern Liang as a troublemaker.

In addition, the prince repeatedly failed and lost the support of the people. Finally, Prince Shen took advantage of the opportunity and took over the troops in the southeast camp to support the northwest.

Recalling the decree of death from the Southern Liang Emperor, Lu Jingning was trembling all over and asked, "Why did the emperor hand over the Northwest Camp to my father for no reason? What happened in the past few days?"

The young eunuch said, "The Imperial Astronomical Observatory predicted that a capable person would appear in the northwest, so the emperor immediately ordered the prince to take over the northwest camp. Princess, this is an honor that no one else can ask for. The northwest camp was conquered by the emperor himself, which shows how much the emperor values ​​you."

Shangguan also laughed and said happily, "Rewards! Everyone in the East Palace will be rewarded."

Upon hearing this, everyone knelt on the ground to thank him.
